He was the husband of Barbara (Blake) Seely. They had observed their 36th wedding anniversary in August.

Born in Washington, D.C., he was a son of the late Roland E. and Norine (Holland) Seely.

Britt received his Bachelor of Arts degree in biology from Northern Illinois University and then his DVM from the University of Illinois in 1981. He had owned and operated the Brodheadsville Veterinary Clinic since 1984.

Britt was an avid fisherman and he loved Northern Illinois Huskies football, but his real joy came from caring for the animals in the West End.

In addition to his wife, he is survived by a son, Reed Seely of DeKalb, Ill.; a daughter, Holland Seely-Kubat and her husband, Zachary, of Allentown; and a brother, Carl E. Seely and his wife, Linda, of Jackson, Tenn.
